Elle Style Awards: Dannii Minogue smuggles her bump in flowing Grecian dress as sister Kylie hands her best TV star award

Sisters together: Pregnant Dannii Minogue with sister Kylie, who presented her with the award for Best TV Star at the Elle Style Awards last night in London


She's almost halfway there now, but pregnant Danny Minogue chose to conceal her baby bump behind a flowing Grecian-style dress last night.

The X Factor judge looked radiant in the yellow ensemble, but despite her slimline look the star revealed she is already struggling to fit into her clothes.

Picking up the award for Best TV Star at the Elle Style Awards, which was presented to her by older sister Kylie, Dannii said: 'I've just gone stage one with the wardrobe where no jeans fit

'Can't get any of them on and you buy jeans with stretchy bits at the front. The rest, I don't even know how it works.'

Dannii, 38, who is expecting her first child in July with model boyfriend Kris Smith, added: 'I really don't know how I'm going to approach any of it yet.'

The brunette, who was on a whistle-stop visit to London before returning to her home country to judge Australia's Got Talent, was among a host of stars who put in a show at the event held at the capital's Grand Connaught Rooms.


Glowing: Dannii hid her bump in a flowing bright yellow sunshine Grecian dress, while Kylie was fashionably late by more than hour, arriving in a plunging LBD


Her sister Kylie, 41, also turned heads in a plunging classic LBD, but arrived to the ceremony more than an hour late.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell scooped the Outstanding Contribution award.

The 39-year-old was honoured for her 25-year career and her work as global patron of The White Ribbon Alliance (WRA) which promotes safe pregnancy.

Prime Minister's wife Sarah Brown introduced Campbell at the central London ceremony as 'a woman who has campaigned tirelessly on behalf of the WRA' before presenting her with the award.

Claudia Schiffer was named Model of the Year. She revealed on the red carpet that her mother had advised her happiness was the key to a healthy pregnancy so she was avoiding scary movies.

Bafta winners Carey Mulligan and Colin Firth were named Actress and Actor of the year.

Mulligan confessed she was hungover from celebrating her Bafta win and she and all her friends had taken turns having their photo taken with the gold Bafta mask in front of their faces as they partied into the early hours.

Twilight star Kristen Stewart was presented with the Elle Style Woman of the Year award by editor-in-chief Lorraine Candy.

Actor-turned-musician Jared Leto presented the Editor's Choice award to TV presenter, model and DJ Alexa Chung.

Ms Candy said: 'Alexa Chung is incredibly popular because she always looks so glamorous and I think she's a real leader for style.'

Nicholas Hoult scooped the Breakthrough Talent award, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were named Elle's Style Icons of 2010 and Florence and the Machine were given the Music prize by Corinne Bailey Rae.

Victoria's Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who last year won the magazine's award for best model, also stood out from the crowd in a sexy full-length red dress.

But as the 22-year-old beauty posed for photographers in the arrivals lounge, she almost blended into the red carpet in her form-fitting outfit.
